adjust defense front good guard guys keeping level played rush time younger
We have some younger guys who have not played defense at this level and have not had to guard too many Brandon Rush (types) or really good players. It's going to take time to adjust keeping those guys in front of them.
bigger guys looks
When we drove, they had some really big guys in there. Aldridge looks like he's 7-foot-1 to me because he's way bigger than our 6-10 guys.
ability against although athletic create guys people problem quickness size skill skilled strength
But those guys are very skilled and very agile. Although the size and strength of some of the people they play against will create a problem for us, I think their skill and quickness and athletic ability will create a problem for some of those teams.
basketball came five four free guys happened lane situations throws worst
There were five situations on their free throws where we had four guys in the lane to their two, and they still came up with the rebound. That's unconscionable. To me, that's the worst play in basketball - and it happened five times.
average guys obviously people rebounds terms texas three
They probably have the second-best (inside players) in the conference. Obviously Texas has the best, but Nebraska's three guys average 20 rebounds a game. They're killing people in terms of rebounding.
ball bounce came good guys hand hurt offense shoot supposed
It wasn't our offense that hurt us, it was our defense. They had guys that could shoot the ball. We were supposed to make them bounce the ball first, and we didn't do that. We came out with a hand up, and that's not good enough.
fortunate great guards playing
It is so fortunate to have two great guards (Blalock and Stinson) playing together,
games
We have a lot of games that we have to win.
foul line needs team
Our team needs to get to the free-throw line a little more, and also we need to foul a little less.
battle best combat strategy
We'll look at the film and try to come up with a strategy to combat that. We'll go over there and battle as best we can.
pull
We're going to have to pull up our bootstraps.
ball either moved night remember shot
I don't remember a night like he had in my 30 years of coaching. They moved the ball around from side-to-side, and either they shot or they went inside.
conference opinion playing reason success
He's playing great. Obviously, in my opinion there's no one in the conference playing as well as he is right now. Any success we've been able to have, he's the reason for it.
free jumps sheet
You can look at the stat sheet like I can. One thing jumps right off the page. I know they got 25 free throws, and we got four.
